From lurker to poster

[k2keller]

Greetings Horde!
I have been lurking and learning here on the board for a couple of years. I put together a Grendel on a Sabre Defense upper and Rainier Arms lower a couple of years ago. I was using factory ammon until I recently put some good glass on it and started working up my own loads, with the help of starter information here. Just wanted to say thanks for the help. Let's see if it works to attach a photo here.

Welcome!

Yes it has been dry, and those of us on the east side have been paying a price! We've had smoke for nearly 2 months between the Cle Elum and Wenatchee fires, as well as those around Yakima.

Yeah, we have a strike team out working the fire near Shelton right now.

Yes it does look good I need to get some and give it a try. I refinish rifle and shotgun wood everyday, I think I should be able to do that too. Did you do it yourself?

No, one of my coworkers did it after he scratched the original finish. I think I came out on the winning side of that issue.
